A DEVOTED STUDENT OP WETHERSFIELD's HISTORY

THIS WORK IS
GRATEFULLY DEDICATED

PREFACE

Scattered all over New England are traces of old neglected
cem-eteries, often remote from the traveled roads, the monu-
ments therein broken and decayed, and perhaps buried by
overgrowths and debris. Already many such are completely
obliterated, the only evidence of their existence being proved
by the plowshare in the hands of a new people, but lately in
possession of the soil; a people having littk, if any, sentimental
interest in the former occupants.

With the general revival of interest in our ancestors during
the past few years, largely induced by the numerous patriotic
hereditary societies that have recently sprung into existence,
fresh impulses have throbbed in our hearts to honor the
memory of the long-departed dead. Many ancient burial-
grounds, for years left to the ravages of nature and the destruc-
tive hand of the stranger, have been as nearly as possible re-
stored to their pristine condition, and this commendable work
is still extending. In this State, laws have recently been en-
acted in view of encouraging the restoration of these " God's
Acres," and many of our older country towns are availing
themselves of the improved opportunities by organizing, with
corporate power, for the purpose of renovating the old ceme-
teries within their borders.

Probably in but few of the burying-grounds in New Eng-
land are the older stones in a better state of preservation than
in the old cemetery at Wethersfield. This is unquestionably
due to the sandy nature of the soil, as well as to the fact that few
trees have existed to collect those enemies of sandstone and
marble, dampness and the consequent mould.

The inscriptions in the three cemeteries herein referred to
as Newington, " Church Street," and " Beckley Quarter "

WETHERSFIELD INSCRIPTIONS

Wethersfield.

Located nearly in the center of the present village of Weth-
ersfield, and directly in the rear of the old First Church edifice,
there rises above the low surrounding country, to an elevation
of perhaps twenty feet, a nearly circular sand hill in the midst
of a large tract of heavy loam. Proofs are not wanting that
this hill was originally a burial-mound of the aborigines of the
country. Tradition also tells us that before the advent of the
white man the river rose to an unprecedented height, forcing
the local inhabitants to encamp upon its summit for a period
of several days, who suffered much inconvenience meantime
for lack of food ; and from henceforth it was known in local
nomenclature as " Hungry Hill " — a name fraught with mean-
ing to this day. And nowhere in New England can a more
beautiful natural location be found for the interment of loved
friends, commanding as it does a wonderful prospect of the
*' Great River " winding for miles through its fertile meadows,
with the uplands of Glastonbury in the background. Here,
near the little log church, the fathers of the town were laid to
rest, and to-day this cemetery, with its subsequent enlarge-
ments, is the only one in the present township. It originally
embraced the eastern and a part of the western declivity.

December 27, 1680, " it was voted and agreed that Emanuel
Buck shall dig all graves and he is to have foure shillings a pece
for growne persons and thre shillings a pece for all others."

March 24, 1681, a committee appointed for the purpose,

reported " that the Townes men with Lieut. Steell layd out the

highway from the Street to the burying place on the south side

of Zachery Seamers Lott one Rod and quarter wide, haveing

first Laid out half an acre to Zachery Seamer, and sett mear

stones and Measured Samuell Smiths lott and finding for him

one Rood and upwards of land." Two years later, in 1683,
some controversy having arisen over the boundaries of the
yard, a committee was appointed to establish the bounds. De-
cember 24, 1684, it was agreed that the plot should be seven
rods wide and twenty-three and three-quarters rods long, con-
taining a little over an acre.

The first enlargement was made March 8, 1736, when
Nathaniel Burnham, in return for land given him by the town,
granted to the Society a piece of land on the west and a
narrow strip on the south, thus nearly doubling the area of the
original plot.

The second addition was on January 29, 1760, when the
ground was extended on the west by nearly a quarter of an
acre, James Mitchell being the grantor. This brought the
burial line nearly up to the foundations of the present church
edifice, the cornerstone of which was laid May 6, 1761.

February 25. 1853, the First School Society, into whose
hands the care of the property had passed, purchased what is
known as the " Clapp extension " on the east, containing a
trifle over one and three-quarters acres.

The last as well as the largest extension in the history of
the cemetery occurred on July 22, 1881, when two acres on the
south were granted to the School Society by the heirs of the
Rev. John Marsh. Only a part of this has as yet been im-
proved and laid out in lots, however. The entire area of the
cemetery to-day is nearly five and three-quarters acres, con-
taining some 1,500 monuments. The earliest stone extant is
that of Leonard Chester, who died in 1648, although there were
several burials previous to his. But two other stones erected
prior to 1700 remain to-day, those of Captain John Chester,
who died February 23, 1697, and Mrs. Sarah Chester, who
died December 12, 1698.

Newington.

In May, 1713, the Second, or West, parish of Wethersfield
was incorporated, although the church was not organized until
October 17, 1722. The inhabitants of this society continued
to use the common burying-ground until, on March 7, 1726,
upon their petition, the town of Wethersfield granted them
" one Acre of Land for a Burying place near their Meeting
house or Elsewhere in the half mile Common and to be Laid
out by Deacon Jabez Whittlesey, Deacon John Deming and
Richard Bordman, who shall bound out the same by sufficient
Monuments and Record it to sd society/* On December 4,
1752, this committee reported that " We have laid out an Acre
of Land for said purpose a little north of the meeting house in
sd Newington, including the old Burying place, and bounded it
out by Sufficient monuments, it being Sixteen Rods in Length
East and West, and ten rods in Width North and South."
This was apparently sufficient in size for the needs of the parish
until December 12, 1842, when Henry Kilbourn sold to the
society a small strip on the west, ' measuring 155 links from
north to south and 37 links in width from east to west, con-
taining nine rods and one hundred and one square feet. Said
piece of land is divided into five lots by the Grantees for a
burying-ground."

November 8, 1843, Henry Kilbourn sold to the School So-
ciety, " for the use and benefit of a common Burying Ground,"
land containing one rood, twenty-two and seven-eighths rods,
on the south of the yard. The last addition, which was also
the largest, was made December i, 1865, when the School
Society purchased of Henry Kilbourn and Samuel N. Rockwell
a piece of land on the west, containing one and a half acres,
making the present plot nearly three acres in extent. The
oldest inscription is on the stone of Lydia, wife of Pelatiiah
Buck, who died July 29, 1726, | and was " the first that was laid
in this yard." The present town of Newington was incor-
porated July 10, 1 87 1.

CHURCH STREET'' INSCRIPTIONS 307

"Church Street/' Newington.

The Episcopal parish of Wethersfield and Worthington was
chartered September 14, 1797, the application being signed by
David Steele and seven others. The edifice was erected at
the south end of Church street, on the east side, was 50x40
feet in dimensions, and was called " Christ's Church." A
cemetery was laid out across the street from the church, and
for nearly thirty years the inhabitants of that faith within a
radius of ten miles met here for worship and burial. This
was in the southwest part of Newington. The building was
sold for one hundred and fifteen dollars by the committee to
Jabez Dickinson, November 17, 1826, and a few years later
the society located in New Britain, where it is now known as
" St. Mark's." The earliest stone bears the date August 27,
1803, and is that of Sophia, daughter of David and Lucy
Gilbert. The yard is practically abandoned to-day as a place
of burial, the last interment having been in August, 1886,
though one or two families in the neighborhood own lots there,
in which they bury their dead.

J 12 GLASTONBURY INSCRIPTIONS

Glastonbury.

The present town of Glastonbury, lying on the east side of
the Connecticut River, did not . become separated from the
mother town until October, 1693, at which time the church was
organized, although its incorporation dates from May, 1690.
On May 4, 1692, two of the inhabitants, Samuel Smith and
John Hubbard, granted to the town a plot of ten acres for the
erection of a meeting-house and for a burying-ground. The
only enlargement of this cemetery was in 1867, when two acres
were added on the east. The earliest stone is that of Eimice
(Chester) Stevens, wife of the Rev. Timothy Stevens, dated
June 4, 1698. The following inscriptions were intended to in-
clude only those who were born previous to the separation in
1693, although for convenience they comprise all bom before
1700.
